How do you make a strawberry scent?

Hello, I just started to get interested in perfumery and found this site. I haven't started to make perfume yet, just researching and learning. I've just ordered a few essential oils and some bits and pieces to get started. One thing I noticed while searching for oils is I didn't see a strawberry essential oil. I was just curious, how do you make a strawberry aroma? Is it a mixture of some oils or is it a synthetic or mixture of synthetics and or oils?

Thanks.

As you have realized, there is no such thing as strawberry EO, so strawberry aroma is synthetic.

A strawberry note is always mainly synthetic. Aldehyde C16 is the most common aromachemical with a strawberry fragrance.
